What Does ‘Non-comedogenic Makeup’ Mean?

We’ve all come across the word ‘non-comedogenic’ at some point in our quest for picking the right makeup products – it could be an influencer who casually mentioned it in a reel, a beauty advisor who pitched it to you at a cosmetics store, or even on our own website’s product description. 

But the question still remains; what in the world does it even mean? Well, this article will simplify it for you, giving you a clear understanding of what it means and also whether it applies to you and your skin needs. 

 

What Is Non-comedogenic Makeup & Why Is It a Key Factor In Picking Makeup? 

To keep it simple, ‘Non-comedogenic’ is just a scientific and fancy way of saying that this is makeup that doesn’t clog pores. It is often a term used for makeup products that allow your skin to breathe and won’t cause pimples, blackheads, or whiteheads. You can think of it as a makeup product that gets you, providing you with flawless results minus the drama! 

What's the big deal? Well, considering that makeup is usually worn for extended periods, the type of formula you expose your skin to makes a huge difference in the effect on your skin long term. 

If your makeup formula is loaded with pore-clogging ingredients, then you could end up with more acne and blemishes that you are trying to conceal in the first place. Using non-comedogenic makeup ensures your makeup doesn’t negatively affect your skin, even with frequent usage.  

Who Actually Needs To Use Non-comedogenic Makeup? 

Non-comedogenic makeup is the holy grail product for someone who has:

• Acne-prone skin
• Oily skin type
• Skin sensitivity 

However, even if your skin doesn’t fall under the above categories, then it would still be a smart move to switch to non-comedogenic makeup, especially if you are trying to make a more clean and conscious choice. 

Makeup with lightweight and breathable formulas is so much better than using a heavier formula that clogs your pores and leads to surprising – but not actually surprising breakouts! Not to forget, it also makes your skin look more natural and healthy than a face full of cake, if you know what we mean.
